I own both. Push 2. Hands down.

Worked it out - had not followed Tom's instructions carefully enough. What ended up being the issue? I am trying to get it to work on OS X and having some trouble with Live 9.7.1. I believe the install worked as expect because I'm getting cfg files generated in the Ubermap directory, but they don't...

I found another thread where a ReWire plugin was causing some issues so I deleted a couple of ReWire components for programs I no longer had. Apart from that, I didn't really do anything else - but either way, seems fixed for now. Thanks all!

Didn't have any FX plugins on the track when this was happening.

Thanks for the help. I seem to have magically fixed it - will wait to see what Ableton says though. I see that the 9.7 beta has fixed a number of crashes as well so may try that.

Unfortunately, no. It just quits.

Hi all, I recently installed 9.7 on my new iMac and got a Push 2. Super excited to get back into making music, but 9.7 is crashing constantly and consistently for me. Even with just a couple of MIDI tracks on it. Not happening with any other DAW on my system (Logic, Bitwig, Studio One, Cubase - yes ...

Zebra or DIVA for folks here? Want to grab one with my $25 coupon.

You of course named things you like better, but let's talk drum machine aye? Maschine by far IMO. What do you find superior with Maschine for drum programming? I find Push better for this, by a large amount. The momentary toggle of individual pad editing for one. Velocity-based step sequencing will...

@Machinesworking and @Chingy, how does Maschine work with the Komplete synths for real time control and programming of sounds compared to Push? Assuming you have Komplete. It's pre-mapped to certain controls, so in that way, it is better for Komplete - but then Push 2 is better for Ableton synths. ...

I disagree (and yes, I have a Maschine). The only, literally only, thing I find better in Maschine is the preset browsing due to the tag system. Apart from that, everything is better in Push. - Step sequencing - MIDI editing - Recording - Automation - Keyboard mode - Screen (at least compared to the...

1) The same can be said with Maschine. The only benefit of Maschine in browsing is that it has tags, but then of course, you have to tag all of your sounds. It also allows browsing of Komplete presets, so if you want that, then the Browsing experience might be better on Maschine. However, the mouse ...

Bump - anybody?

Really looking forward to diving into it. I think this combo with Ableton is going to be way better than Maschine was for me. Wish Ableton had comping, but ultimately, I think I'll bounce out / flatten & ReWire for vocal, guitar, etc. recording. What are the best resources for learning Push 2? I...
